| 8317 Expl. Dept. HS{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Lid.{A. J. Lidsey}S/MA. 26th., November 1932. Donald Sessions & Co.Ltd., 906 Harrow Road, Willesden, London, N.W.10. For the attention of Mr. Donald Sessions. Dear Sirs, Further to our telephone conversation this morning, we have gone into the suggestion that we should make the brackets for the rear jacks and agree to do so; this we believe will leave your price quotation correct as it now stands, i.e. for jacks only. In connection with the rear brackets we wish to point out to you that the base of our bracket is slightly thicker than the brackets that you made originally and consequently the bolts which you supply with the jacks will need to be correspondingly longer; your drawing of the jack brackets indicates the dimension. You should have been informed that we would like the jack handles made 6.0" longer than the one that we now have; this point was unfortunately overlooked, it should have been mentioned when you received our order, will you kindly arrange this. We shall be pleased to see you on Thursday next to clear up any other points which you care to raise and also there are points to discuss with regard to the fitting of jacks to the 20/25HP. model. Yours faithfully, FOR ROLLS-ROYCE LIMITED. | ||
